We have created standardised assessments for both English and Maths for the programmes. For Maths, we have provided one assessment paper. Your students should take this before the programme and then the same paper after, to measure their progress.
For English, the assessment consists of one fiction paper and one non-fiction paper. The pre and post programme assessments are based on different reading material.
You can download this material along with the Answer Books and Mark Schemes below.
Your students will take these assessments on paper before moving onto the SchoolOnline platform to start their learning.
Please allow around 60 minutes for the Maths assessment and 60 minutes total for the English assessment (30 mins for each paper).

Preparing Your School
For SchoolOnline
As SchoolOnline runs on a web browser with the video tutorials hosted on Vimeo, there are some key checks you will need to make prior to commencing the programme to ensure everything runs smoothly from Day 1.
If your school is happy to permission vimeo.com broadly, this is the easiest solution. However if your school requires vimeo.com to be blocked, your IT department can also approve just the SchoolOnline Vimeo video links. You can access the full URL list by clicking on the link below.
If you need any assistance with this process, please contact info@schoolonline.co.uk.
Creating Assignments
For Your Programme
The learning assignments during the programme will be aligned directly to the programme of study you are following. We have created assignments that support the Autumn term White Rose curriculum, with each assignment having a Level 1 and a Level 2 option for students working at different abilities.

You will be setting each week’s course content as an “assignment” so you can track your students’ work and their results. We will prepare these lists for you so they are all ready to be set as assignments (and can help with setting the assignments as well!).
To support you in creating and marking assignments on SchoolOnline Classroom we have also attached two tutorial videos, walking you through how to set your assignments. If you would like any more support using the platform you can head over to our tutorial videos by clicking here or contact our live helpdesk through the green bubble in the bottom right hand corner.
Top Tips For Running a Programme
Below are some tips which we have noticed have worked well in previous pilot programmes and which may be useful to implement in your pilot.
- Set aside the appropriate amount of time to allow your students to look over and study the content. Each week’s programme is designed to be around 1 hour, with 30 minutes on both maths and English. This is designed to replicate a condensed lesson at KS2 level for each subject.
- We strongly suggest inviting the students to watch our expertly designed videos, all of which are created and produced by teachers. These videos show the pupils exactly how to approach each question and the subsequent answers are included, so that they can take ownership of their own learning.
- Be flexible: not all students will want to or be able to work at the pace you expect. Therefore, the codes they have been given are created to allow them to access the programme at home too, should they need extra time or more help in the supported sessions.
- Be sure to check the learning that has taken place in each session and where needed, direct your students to the extra quizzes that can be found in the interactive mode in each assignment in order to support them in their areas for improvement.
- Keep in touch: be sure to tell us if you need any help before, during and after your pilot. We have run many successful pilots and we are sure this one will be no different.
